The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

- Amylase is related to the breakdown of starch, which involves the α-C1-C4 linkage in plants. 
- Cellulose has β-C1-C4 linkages in plants. 
- Glycogen has α-C1-C4 and α-C1-C6 linkages, found in animals. 
- Amylopectin has α-C1-C4 and α-C1-C6 linkages, also found in plants. 
Thus, the correct matching is (A)-(IV),(B)-(I),(C)-(III),(D)-(II).
